    "Historical area of beautiful homes-Copley Mansion, churches in a quiet residential neighborhood without the crazy price tag of Naperville or Lincoln Park."
  • jillykay2
    "Aurora offers the very best of everything, especially the downtown area. Just minutes from so much culture and exceptional bus and train transportation right downtown! Within a block or two, you are in one of the most beautiful and historic areas of Aurora and wonderful for biking and walking! Aurora is recognized as having a very low crime rate for its size!"
  • Dannyabalos64
    "This area of Aurora is very nice. It is close to many schools and churches. Abraham Lincoln park is only a short walk and has volleyball court, playground and walking track and adjacent is a dog park. Their is a very quaint shopping area only a short walk south with groceries, salons, auto repair, dry cleaners, restaurant. Pace bus service is only a 2 block walk and services Metra, Greyhound, Waubonsee Community College and many more destinations. The neighborhood is quiet, clean and safe. 10 minutes to I-88 access. Downtown Aurora is only minutes away and has many great places to visit. Aurora University is a short walk west. This part of Aurora is a perfect place to raise a family."
